Threading the needle Raise the presser foot. Place the thread on the spool pin and fit a spool cap of the right size. Using both hands, pull the thread into the thread guide (A) from front to back. Place the thread from the right underneath the bobbin winder thread guide (B). Now pass it through the left-hand threading slot downwards. Pull the thread around the stop (C) in the right-hand threading slot and upwards to the take-up lever (E). The thread must be pulled fully into the take-up lever from left to right. Pass the thread downwards in the right-hand threading slot. Pull the thread from the side behind one of the two thread guides (D). To thread the needle, please refer to the next section. Note: When sewing always place the thread underneath the bobbin winder thread guide (B). B A E C D Preparations Needle threader In order to make threading of the needle easier and quicker the Pfaff needle threader is built-in. The needle threader allows you to thread the needle automatically. 1. Lower the presser foot. Press the threader down with the handle. The threader hook (G) swivels through the needle eye. 2. Place the thread from the back, over the hook (F) and under the thread hook (G) and hold the end of the thread taut. Reduce the pressure so that the needle threader slowly moves upwards. 3. At the same time, the threader hook swivels out of the needle eye and pulls the thread through the eye. Slightly release the end of the thread, so that a thread loop can form behind the needle. Release the threader and pull the rest of the thread end through the needle eye. 1. F 2. 2:14 G 3.
